While you are correct that helium is lighter than CO2, both are so light and bike tires hold such little volume that it's inconsequental. I suspect someone here will have the actual figures at hand or the inclination to look them up. I'd bet we're taking about fractions of a fraction of gram.

I may actually have to look that up now to see the numbers.
